Governor Marshall of Indiana is
reported to have asserted his inten -
j Hon to remain neutral in his reply
to Colonel Bryan, which said:
"You may be right, but as Judge
Parker, as a member of the commit
tee on resolutions from the state of
New York at the national convention
at Denver, helped to report our plat
form of 190S and as he came to In
diana that year to advocate your
election and mine, and as he return
ed in 1310 to advocate the election of
Senator Kern, I do not see how- his
: select ion as temporary chairman w ill
result in a reactionary platform In
1912."
Judge Parker, after reading the
I Bryan message at Rochester, N. Y.,
refused to make other comment on
it than to term it "very interesting"

work on his addreSH as temporary
chairman on the New York train tc
